A heat pipe is a highly efficient thermal device used for transferring heat from one location to another. It operates on the principle of phase change and convection to move heat away from hot surfaces. Here's a breakdown of how a heat pipe works: ### Structure 1. **Container**: Usually made of metal, the container is sealed and evacuated to create a vacuum. 2. **Working Fluid**: Inside the container, a small amount of liquid (working fluid) is present.
